ASRock Motherboard

This a780lm-s motherboard from ASRock (2010) is so affordable.

If you are planning to do light gaming, this ASRock Motherboard is optimal. Also, my pc boots in less than 40 seconds (boots up 50+ processes in an instant with Athlon ii x2 240) and I can handle large amounts of multitasking with it. It has a relatively easy to understand BIOS compared to the earlier version. It also supports some Phenom ii x6 models and supports Crossfire™.

Although I go with this motherboard because of the relationship in price to performance, I wouldn't recommend this board to those high end gamers, Intel fanboys, NVIDIA fanatics of SLI, overclocking ding-a-lings and other "disambiguation". This motherboard has ACC and not UCC.

Next up: I have hopes to unlock L3 cache from Athlon II X4 640.
